A CLASSIC SPIRAL GALAXY IMAGE: NGC 4380

Spiral galaxies, like the one in this 2019 Hubble image, are among the most common structures in our universe.

Spiral galaxies are massive collections of stars, often hundreds of billions of stars. The brightest region of these galaxies is surrounded by dense clusters of stars at the center of the galaxy, surrounded by graceful spiral arms surrounded by dark dust lanes.
